Critical level of oxygen delivery after cardiopulmonary bypass.

abstract：:Cardiogenic shock is the most common cause of death in patients hospitalized with acute myocardial infarction and is associated with a poor prognosis. More than 75% of cases are due to extensive left ventricular infarction and ventricular failure. Other causes include right ventricular infarction and papillary muscle ...
